BC\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Salmon Arm is a premier all-season destination, and this dish fits right in. After a day outdoors, it\u2019s the kind of meal you want waiting at the end of the trail. The city is centrally located about an hour from three major ski hills, is home to the world\u2019s longest curved wooden wharf in North America, and is a birdwatching paradise, with two-thirds of the bird species found in BC recorded in the area. It\u2019s a place where winter powder days, lakeside walks, and spring shoulder-season adventures all pair perfectly with great local food and drink.<\/p>\n<p>This recipe also celebrates Shuswap farm-to-table living, with ingredients that can be sourced from local food partners like DeMille\u2019s Farm Market &amp; Orchard. DeMille\u2019s is a beloved regional landmark where fresh, locally grown produce, specialty foods, and farm-raised meats come together in a welcoming, family-friendly setting. It\u2019s more than a market; it\u2019s a gathering place that captures the spirit of the community, and the perfect stop to pick up everything you need for a meal like this.<\/p>\n<p>Choose a bold, malty beer or crisp, fruity cider from one of these producers to create rich depth in the braise, and pour another to serve alongside.<\/p>\n<p><em>Full recipe below<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF;

Its gentle roast echoes the seared short ribs and caramelized onions, while the smooth finish complements the creamy mashed potatoes. A gold winner at the Canadian Brewing Awards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ricochet Brewing and Taphouse<\/strong> \u2013 Firehouse Red Ale<\/p>\n<p>A medium-bodied red ale with a distinct roasted caramel character. The toasted sweetness picks up the browned edges of the beef and vegetables without overpowering the dish. Bonus story in the glass: Firehouse Red is dedicated to local volunteer fire departments and first responders.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shuswap Cider Co.<\/strong> \u2013 Cherry Ros\u00e9 Cider<\/p>\n<p>Ripe Okanagan cherries fermented into a light wine, blended with balanced apple cider. Bright, juicy, and slightly dry, it cuts through the richness of the ribs and lifts the savoury flavours. An especially good match if you want a fresher, fruit-led contrast to the braise.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Northyards Cider Co<\/strong>. \u2013 Semi-Dry Cider<\/p>\n<p>Crisp, traditional apple cider with intentionally restrained sweetness. The lively acidity refreshes the palate between bites of tender, fatty beef, keeps the pairing savoury, and lets the herbs, onion, and roasted cabbage shine. Light carbonation adds a clean, bright finish.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_63016\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-63016\" style=\"width: 488px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-63016\" src=\"https:\/\/ef5pdbk7uqr.exactdn.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Ned-Bell-CTV-Salmon-Arm-photo-Ned-Bell-Culinary-02.jpg?strip=all&lossy=1&quality=90&webp=90&avif=80&sharp=1&resize=488%2C650&ssl=1\" alt=\"Local craft beer and cider from Salmon Arm, BC, to pair with your meal (photo: Ned Bell Culinary)\" width=\"488\" height=\"650\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-63016\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Local craft beer and cider from Salmon Arm, BC, to pair with your meal (photo: Ned Bell Culinary)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ctvnews.ca\/vancouver\/video\/2025\/12\/11\/bc-ale-trail-salmon-arm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Watch the full CTV segment here<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Every Pint Tells a Story<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Supporting Local.\u00a0Celebrating Community.<\/h4>\n<div class=\"sharebox-container\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join Chef Ned Bell, the BC Ale Trail and CTV Your Morning Vancouver for a series of delicious recipes featuring local, seasonal ingredients, and BC craft beer.
